Step-Growth Polymerization and Step-Growth Polymers

摘要: Two types of monomers can undergo step-growth polymerizations [1, 4, 5]. Both are polyfunctional, but one type possesses only kind functionality. An example is adipic acid that has two functional groups, both carboxylic groups. Another hexamethylene diamine with amine To the second belong have groups needed for condensation on same molecule. such a monomer p-amino benzoic acid, where amino and present in Chain growths proceed from reactions between different molecules. exception formation polyanhydrides, polymeric chains formed reacting each other splitting out water. There some exceptions as well.
